Total Quantity or Scope
The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) is entering into a contract with Kick ICT Group to supply maintenance, development and software support for its suite of Finance and Procurement systems including SunSystems SunAccounts, DEPM, P2P, Spindle and bespoke add-on modules. This is to preserve the integration to Scottish Government's e-Procurement systems and ensure continuous updating and operation of the COPFS systems which are business critical, from a supplier able to provide highly responsive on-site and remote support, maintenance and development across all elements. Due to the existing integrations and bespoke modules that have been developed and are maintained and supported by Kick ICT Group, competition is absent. Additional information: Due to pressures generated by the COVID-19 pandemic national lockdown restrictions some planned developments from the previous contract were late to start and unable to be concluded before the contract expiry. These will need to be finished under the new contract.
